Oko Stellar

Oko Stellar, an Antwerp native, is a DJ deeply rooted in underground dance music. Raised on soul, R&B, and gospel, music was never just background noise—it was life. These early influences, combined with years of digging and dancing at events like Vice City, shaped him into the eclectic artist he is today. A true devotee of Black dance music, Oko seamlessly blends past and future, creating immersive sonic narratives that move the body and soul. As a resident at Traum and part of the Nowadays Magazine family, he constantly explores the heritage of electronic dance music while embracing fresh, forward-thinking sounds. His show at WeAreVarious delves into the essence of Black dance music—where liberation is at its core. Whether in dark clubs or under festival skies, Oko Stellar unites dancers under a groove, building on the legacy of legends like Moodymann and Ron Trent.
